Hello John and Doves,
I try to keep an eye on
this area because of the New Madrid fault.
There have been several
quakes reported in the news in Tennessee: April 23
there was a magnitude 4.0 in Steele, Missouri...that's the
largest...so far. And April 25 there was a magnitude
2.3 in Kingston, Tennessee. In the last 5 days there
have been 9 of magnitude 1.5 and greater. There was a
1.6 two weeks ago.
At the end of this
letter I included the USGS computer simulation of a
magnitude 7.7 earthquake in the New Madrid Seismic
zone.
The New
Madrid Fault zone is considered America's most
dangerous earthquake zone.
It's a 150 mile long
seismic zone - that extends through several states:
Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky.
"The zone had four of
the largest earthquakes in recorded North American
history, with moment magnitudes estimated to be as large
as 7 or greater, all occurring within a 3 month period
between December 1811 and February 1812."
December 16, 1811 there
was a magnitude 7.5 quake with epicenter in northeast
Arkansas. At New Madrid, Missouri, "trees were knocked
down and riverbanks collapsed." It was felt in
Washington, D.C and Charleston, South Carolina. It
last some 10 - 12 minutes. There were some 27
aftershocks "felt every 6 - 10 minutes.
January 23, 1812 there
was a magnitude 7.3 quake with an epicenter around New
Madrid, Missouri. There was "ground deformation,
landslides, fissuring and stream-bank caving."
February 7, 1812 there
was a magnitude 7.5 quake with epicenter around New Madrid,
Missouri. This was the largest of the three.
"and it destroyed the town of New Madrid." "In this
event, uplift along the fault created temporary waterfalls
on the Mississippi River, created a war that propagated
upstream and caused the formation of Reelfoot Lake by
damming streams."
"Hundreds of aftershocks
of the 1811 - 1812 series followed over a period of seven
years"...up until 1817.

Some believe those two
North American eclipses were a warning/harbinger of coming
judgment on America. And I remember reading about
dreams and visions that described a huge split up the
Mississippi River that divides the country in half.
The New Madrid Fault
zone is considered America's most dangerous earthquake
zone.

simulation of a magnitude 7.7 in the New Madrid Seismic Zone
